SDP is the MasterCard "Site Data Protection" program. ScanAlert's HACKER SAFE certification, and its underlying vulnerability auditing technology, has been tested and certified by MasterCard International to meet the requirements for remote vulnerability assessments of MasterCard's SDP compliance regulations.

ScanAlert's vulnerability audits are also fully accredited to meet the requirements of Visa USA's Cardholder Information Security Program (CISP) and Visa International's Account Information Security Program (AIS), as well as the American Express DSS and Discover Card DISC standards.

To qualify for certified compliance with these standards, a company's web server(s) must have zero Urgent, Critical, or High severity vulnerabilities in its the most recent security audit. Audits must be conducted every 90 days.
